I am rebuilding factory LCA with sway bar tabs for a street performance 66 Dodge Coronet.
I will be stiffening the LCA's with plates and installing a 1 1/8" sway bar, installing heavier torsion bars (either .96 or 1.03), and using urethane bushings most elsewhere.
My planning assumption is that front-end weight will around 1800 to 2000 lb (50:50;F:R).
My questions -
(1) what are people's experience with greasable pivot shafts / polygraphite bushings? I've heard these pivot shafts have been known to walk ..... (hearsay).
(2) with all the stiffening/tightening up of the front suspension I am doing (compliance), would rubber be a better choice in the LCA to 'soften' the feel?
